In a topic sure to delight many, I ask you to pick the series where history is made.  Pick the game if you would like also

Gonna be honest with you I should have put  home and away next to the angels lmao

Loss 121 will be on 9/24 at home vs the Angels. Like the jerks that they are, they make us wait a little longer by taking 2 of 3 from the A's and 1 of 3 @ the Angels.

They will lose that game by a score of 73-1.

I can't wait for the Sox to win a few games later when all the teams are out of it and hear Schriffen go nuts about the momentum they have built for 2025.

I'm still not sure if his approach is deliberate or oblivious but I can absolutely picture that, yes.

Like, the fans could pack the stadium for the potential loss #121, and as the game was in the 9th inning there would be a ton of sarcastic/cynical cheering - but I just know that on the broadcast he'd misinterpret it - "SOX! fans....on their FEET!...trying to support their TEAM! Trying to give some HOPE! They haven't given UP!"

For Attitude-era wrestling fans, his delivery reminds me a lot of when Shane McMahon did color commentary on Sunday Night Heat. We're just missing some "YEAH YEAH BOOYAH YEAH!" calls.

All that being said, I feel empathy for Schriffen, much in the way that I felt bad when a classmate/co-worker was nice but too earnest/peppy and gradually annoyed everyone around them.

They can’t break it in the first series against the Angels. They’d only be at 120 if they lost every game up to that point.

That being said, I am refraining from voting because I’m superstitious.

I think we'll all know where we were when that happens.

ESPN grades are out. I don't have the insider account but one team got an F minus, minus, minus. I think I can figure that one out.
